Hi Andreas,
It is worth noting that the system defaults to a Wide battlefield if you set it up as 1240 vs 1200 points.
Having already had two attempts to set up the challenge correctly, I could not raise the will to redo it again after I noticed that. I will if you absolutely insist, but Jack will cream me anyway with Egyptians + Hebrews vs Cypriotes.
Perhaps the campaign rules should be changed to match the default width for 1240 vs 1200? Or perhaps the narrower width is required to get the effect you want? (Although I very much doubt it will make any difference to the incidence of "corner sitting".)
Cheers,
Richard
Hi there. No need to set up again, unless Jack wants you to.
I'm aware of the problem of defaulting to higher width when increasing to e.g. 1240. Since I'd like to keep the setup as an adjusted 1200 vs 1200 at 32x32, I may change it to 1200 vs 1160 instead (i.e., reducing FP by 40 instead of increasing), because that would hopefully keep width at 32. (And correspondingly to 1600 vs 1540 at 40x32 instead.)
